I used an AI to make paintings using only the terms “Baduk” and “Weiqi.” Thoughts?

Dalle2 is drawing intersections and stones very clearly, so its very clearly seen that stones are not on intersections.

Advanced AI Demonstrates the Superiority of Playing Go Stones Off of the Intersections

Heh close, almost uncanny how realistic it looks.

They look like potentially interesting games, though. Perhaps that’s a nice game in itself: creating a game from whatever an AI believes Go is like.

Clockwise from the top-left:

• Modern Art Fairy Shogi. The pieces are interpretative.
• Generalized 9 Men’s Morris
• That’s a school project board game made from papier-mâché. Let’s call it Poor Man’s Scrabble
• Abstract Mahjong

Clockwise from the top-left:

• The most boring (or most awesome, depending on your point of view) game of Snakes and Ladders. Played on a continuous board
• Obviously some ancient variant of Dai Shogi we have not discovered yet. Conspiracy theorists say it was invented by aliens.
• Casino Match-up
• Kickstarter game that claims to “improve critical thinking skills”, but in the end is just some weird Tafl

Clockwise from the top-left:

• Checkers meet Parcheesi meet The Royal game of Ur, with Chance and Community Chest cards
• Parking-lot Backgammon
• 5x8 Mancala from an alternative universe, where mancala games developed a bajillion special rules.
• A display of rare cards from a promotional 7-Eleven TCG that became super popular somehow.

Clockwise from the top-left:

• Competitive dice-rolling
• Competitive 2-Player Nim
• Random-board Scrabble
• Competitive 1-Player Nim

Clockwise from the top-left:

• Reading the rules. This game is too complicated, and I just wanted to have a drink.
• Karuta the Gathering
• People playing the aforementioned 7-Eleven TCG
• Whatever abstract strategy game Beer-Pong will evolve into after 2000 generations of drunkards.

Yes, this is pretty much how our meetings look.

This is quite a few more players than we get at typical meetings:

Definitely an improvement

It just can’t do it!

It can, but it refuses to do so. This is how the revolution begins.

I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords and playing in the squares.
